Title Body

I have the following entity class: public class FacebookComment : BaseEntity { [BsonId(IdGenerator = typeof(ObjectIdGenerator))] [BsonRepresentation(MongoDB.Bson.BsonType.ObjectId)] [JsonProperty("_id")] public ObjectId Id { get; set; } public int? OriginalId { get; set; } public DateTime Date { get; set; } public string Message { get; set; } public string Sentiment { get; set; } public string Author { get; set; } } When this object is serialized to JSON, I want the Id field to be written as "_id":{...}. AFAIK, I should just have to pass the desired propertyname to the JsonProperty attribute; and I should be good to go. However, when I call JsonConvert.SerializeObject; it seems to ignore my attribute and renders this instead: { Author: "Author name", Date: "/Date(1321419600000-0500)/", DateCreated: "/Date(1323294923176-0500)/", Id: { CreationTime: "/Date(0)/", Increment: 0, Machine: 0, Pid: 0, Timestamp: 0 }, Message: "i like stuff", OriginalId: null, Sentiment: "Positive" } As you can see, the Id field is being rendered with the wrong field name. Any ideas? Been working on this issue for an hour; can't figure out why the serializer is seemingly ignoring my JsonProperty. Any constructive input is greatly appreciated.
